So it never gets past the splash screen? Have you tried booting up the console with your HDD removed?

I have the same problem with my (classic) console. Green logo starts spinning, and it freezes. Started happening after an update back in February, doing it once a week for a while, then once or twice a day, however a reboot worked at the time. Now nothing works. Freezes every time I turn on the console. Spent a lot of time on the phone troubleshooting (already did everything suggested several times, HDD on/off, new HDD, etc), only to have them tell me I'd need to pay $150 to have it repaired. I could get a new one for slightly more than that... :@(

For twice that you could have a new, better version. But that's just the problem. It happened AFTER a Microsoft update. Worked perfectly before then. Obviously a software, and/or hardware issue. Meaning not my problem to pay for. Should be fixed or replaced for free.
